lyrics:

The rain soaks the rows of tall buildings standing there like so many gravestones
Like a shadow
Burning into a wall

I’ll pretend to walk on glass, just waiting for the time to pass, I can’t remember who I was but it must’ve been less scared
I feel like
I’m feeling but I forgot what feeling feels like, I feel like I’m repeating the same old rickety rhymes

All over again 
All over again

I feel like a writer but I can’t remember how to write
I feel like a doctor but instead of healing I let die
I feel like a firefighter but instead of putting fires out I start them
Feel like a lifeguard but I let everyone drown

All over again 
All over again
All over again 
All over again

We went right on spitting into the graves of all the poor ones that died before us and now we spend our days remembering
We’re going to build a mirror factory and put out nothing but mirrors to take a good hard look at ourselves in 
The nothingness
The insignificance
Nothing but dust
Nothing but decay and rust and dust

All over again 
All over again
All over again 
All over again

In the millionth part of time left I see the reflection of my face in the mirror it’s empty
Wildly empty
Starved
And eating
Of itself

All over again
All over again 
All over again 
All over again 

Shut the doors they’re coming through the windows, shut the windows they’re coming through the doors
I pitch I hit I catch
I run the bases
At sunset I have lost or won and at sunrise I will start again

All over again 
All over again 
All over again and again and again and again
All over again 

The rain soaks the rows of tall buildings standing there like so many gravestones
Like a shadow
Burning into a wall
